Anyone know where we can find capital for our power boat production facility?

Also, from an average (or not) consumers point, I think you need to add much more info. in your website. It sound like you're wanting to make an absolute quality craft and not "cut corners" which is good. But when I looked at your site there didn't seem to me that there would be much to hold my interest. My advice isn't much and I know it, but I think you need to pump up your website and it would possibly aid in attracting investors. The best of luck to you! ------------------------------------------ This guy kinda caught my attention for some reason. Maybe it's because I got a sense of an entrepreneurial flavor to his post which I liked. The website, although sparse, is well written and transmits a vision of attempting to offer a high quality product, at least from an idealistic point of view anyway. I liked it's tone. Putting aside the fact that I am not a fan of bubble boats, the concern I have, recognizing that it is based on very little information, is that the boat does not seem to have any memorable unique attributes to it. It's going to compete against a score of established boat manufacturers building similar boats. So, here's the problem. In order to gain entry to the marketplace they will have to do something to make it unique and desirable. The only option is price. The worst mistake any budding business can make is to underprice their product to penetrate the market, especially on big ticket items. You loose money and it takes many years of being profitable to make it up. Plus, it's much more difficult to increase prices, once established. I realize I am just guessing at this and again wish them success, but to me there's something missing to justify consideration of an investment. Eisboch "Lose" (not "loose") ...... dope. Eisboch |

Eisboch- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - you were right the first time. Investers with "loose" money can easily "loooze" it, especially on big-ticket items without careful planning. Agreed, though, unless they have a niche' market there's already old established names out there that can be tough competitors |

Eisboch The boat pictured on the website actually looks like a production Regal or SeaRay. * The picture is not sharp and identifying logos or decals were most likely photochopped out. As you say the website is vague on all aspects of the boat including construction. Looks like a scam to me.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Could be, Jim. Maybe I'm not looking in all the right places, but googling the 'net doesn't provide any info., that is besides their own site. |

He's very wealthy, just ask him. He is also very refined and cultured, just ask him. Oh, and he's very truthful and honest.

This guy has obviously never been involved in any of our (mine too) folly, he is just trying to make a living and start a business... Could be a great asset later when the boating season starts up if we don't scare him off.. Just my 02... ========== Why not just stop all bashing? If that occurred, about nine posters who come here only to "bash" you, me, and one or two others would have nothing to post. |

I do agree, our website is, as some of you have said, "sparse" however, that is intentional on our part. The reason that we simplified the site is that we only wanted to provide basic information to individuals that might be interested in discussing a partnership with us. It is not meant to answer every question, or provide a detailed business summary for everyone who views the site to read. The boat that you see pictured on the website is a generic model boat, and is not meant to be representative of what we are producing. We do intend to completely revamp the website when appropriate, however, at this point the object of the site was simply to provide additional information to potential partners. The initial boat that we will be producing is a 22' performance offshore boat, with sleeping arrangements, and cooking options. Our intention with this business and design is to allow a wider customization of the product by the buyer, beyond simply choosing the exterior and interior colours, and whether to include a marine radio or not. Our buyers are able to essentially build their boat "from the ground up". They are in total control of the entire build process from start to finish. The only aspect that they are not able to customize is the actual hull. The deck is fully customizable, from just a basic fiberglass deck with no windows, grab-rails, or sun deck, to a fully optioned carbon-fiber deck that is stronger then steel. We also offer a mahogany deck for customers that are interested in the nostalgic boats of the past, with the reliability and durability that a fiberglass or carbon fiber hull provides. Based on our pricing options for the boat, we are able to offer the boat at a reduced price, while still making a sizable profit. Thank you again for all your responses, and I look forward to discussing this business opportunity with interested parties. John carbonboats at yahoo.com www.carbonperformanceboats.com |
